PRAXIS Pavilion 2023, BENDSCAPE
BENDSCAPE results from a two-semester work by the students in Machining PRAXIS in Architecture I & II, at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna’s Institute of Architecture. In this study, the students began learning the processes of 3-axis machining and developed their expertise by experimenting with wood bending techniques based on subtraction. During this […]
Techniques and Tools for Digital Production 1
official course description, modalities and sign-up -> Techniques and Tools for Digital Production 1 Wether interior space or urban square, designed space is the fundamental theme in architecture. The relationship between the inside and the outside is articulated through architecture and therefore the interdependent effect of the enclosed elements and the enclosing elements is one of […]

Template: CNC HotWire CUTTER DEFINITIONs
Use one of the following template Files to produce the necessary GCode to run our CNC HotWire Cutter! Each Definition comes with a 5.0 Rhinofile for setting up your geometry and a Grasshopper Definition to produce the GCode. In case one of them or both are not self-explinatory to you, stop by the experimenal lab and […]
IMPRINTPROCESSES
The DDPLab of the IoA is co-hosting one of this year’s urban strategies summer schools IMPRINTPROCESSES instructs to produce, calibrate, operate and hack their own 3D printers. Special attention is given to the individual printers´ behaviours. The summerschool relates experiments and their emergent physical manifestations with the material processes of the urban fabric, and has a […]
CNC – Hot-Wire-Cutter
The DDPLab is equipped with one “PC-CUT Standard” machine from StepFour. Originally used for the model-airplane-industry with a cumbersome MSDOS-based cutting software we hacked it to be operated with MACH3. The gcode now can directly be produced out of Grasshopper an parametric scripting plugin for Rhinoceros 5.0 The CNC Hot-Wire-Cutter has a maximum cut volume […]
